Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies staging.analyze.abqweather.com as a brand impersonation scam posing as a legitimate weather service. The site is designed to trick visitors into revealing sensitive information by mimicking a trusted brand’s staging environment. While the domain itself is not yet flagged by most detection engines (0 detections out of 95 on VirusTotal), its suspicious nature and lack of transparency warrant caution. This domain was flagged due to its brand impersonation threat, with key indicators including its creation date of August 09, 2000, registration through ENOM, INC., and hosting on IP 185.149.120.183. Despite using a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, which may falsely imply legitimacy, the domain’s age and registrar do not align with typical secure brand impersonation setups. Security researchers note that such domains often exploit trust in established brands to deceive users. If you visited staging.analyze.abqweather.com, avoid entering any personal or financial information. Do not interact with prompts or downloads that may appear on the site. Clear your browser cache and cookies related to the domain, and consider running a malware scan on your device. Report the domain to your antivirus provider and avoid revisiting the site to prevent potential credential theft or malware exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260503-E4E161 TLS cert SHA-256: b27b648e2a7fc1d8d6be926114a81bec85529638435843403fb95c879f93d25d ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/staging.analyze.abqweather.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=staging.analyze.abqweather.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
